im a bit confused?

are you talking about a webcam racing camshaft? or a computer video cam that could go on your helmate.

if you were talkin about the cam shaft, i love it more power, wheelies easier, and is all around better power.

I think Outrage is either trying to post video to the 'net, or trying to get a helmet cam going. What you are reffering to is a HOT cam-J/K! Don't get all REDNECK on me for being a smarta$$~

Yes guys I'm talking about something that can capture a few of our Alaskan adventures. I'm guessing some kind of helmet cam is the best way to go but I'm not sure our club will be willing to spend the $$$.

For those of you bishing about the design of suzukis Listen up all manufactures can be pointed at for one thing or another not being designed right so chill out. As for honda yeah they use to be the best now they are barelly as good as the rest. As for magazine shootouts, I have read most all of the past issues of several different magazines and it goes as follows; lt 80 still oveall the best mini,ltz250 has won a majority of shootouts, ozark 250 same, eiger same, vinson, same z 400 same in fact the vinson took 3rd in the 650-700cc shootout now there is the king quad that will surely win a majority of the shootouts also.
If you don't like the way it was made then change it and either sell your idea as an aftermarket fix or give it to suzuki to maybe fix on the next model. And if those of you that want to jump ship and goto the hasbeen then by allmeans do so, and us Suzuki faithfull will enjoy passing you by.

Everyone of the big manufacturers are trying to make a bad a$$ four stroke quad because 2 strokes are on the way out.There are bound to be flaws for awhile. Honda cr's first aluminum frame cr flopped pretty big,but now its changing the way two wheelers are made,just give it a few years and the fourstrokes will be awesomely reliable

my opinions are based on the comparison between the 400EX and the Z400.
this is what i have seen.

1-honda has a supirior swingarm design

2-honda uses a BALL BEARING for the steering stem,suzuki uses a brass BUSHING.

3-honda has a more durable frame (compare gussets)

i wonder who is the leader in...QUALITY...

i read someones sig and it said"don't be brand loyal because no brand is loyal to you"

it is human nature to not see what one whishes not to see.(ignorance)
